[QUOTE="gbroke, post: 2003924, member: 22585"]I recently picked up another Jefferson nickel album full of toners... [IMG]https://www.cointalk.com/proxy.php?image=http%3A%2F%2Fgregpriemer.com%2Fnickellot.jpg&hash=e8f1d56b8544661949e814013785f195[/IMG] Sounds awesome right? Not always. With the good, comes the bad. With my experience in buying full albums of toned coins, it's fairly common to get the black "carbon" spots on some of the coins in the album. In fact, I believe these little jerks are the reason the coins are toning. With some luck, they only infect a few coins... In this case, not many of the toners were spared from the spots. It's a shame, because some of these are real beauties. This will be a good opportunity to try some techniques to remove the spots, without removing the color. We shall see what happens. In the meantime, here are some of the infected coins that otherwise, would be real stunners.
